John Denver - Song Of Wyoming

G – Gm – D

D D7 G Gm
well i’m weary and tired , i’ve done my days ridin’
D Em7 A7
nightime is rolling my way
D D7 G Gm
the sky’s all on fire and the lights slowly fadin’
D G D
peaceful and still ends the day
F#m Bm F#m D9
out on the trail night birds are callin’
G Gm D
singin’ their wild melody
F#m Bm F#m D9
down in the canyon , the cottonwood whispers
G Gm D G – Gm – D
a song of wyoming for me

D D7 G Gm
well i wandered a round towns and the cities
D Em7 A7
tried to figure the how and the why
D D7 G Gm
well i stopped all my schemin’ , iam just driftin’ and dreamin’
D G D
watching the river roll by
F#m Bm F#m D9
here comes that big ole prarie moon risin’
G Gm D
shinin’ down bright as can be
F#m Bm F#m D9
up on the hill there’s a coyote singin’
G Gm D G – Gm – D
a song of wyoming for me

D D7 G Gm
now it’s whiskey and tobacco and bitter black coffee
D Em7 A7
a lonesome old doggie Am i
D D7 G Gm
but wakin’ upon the range , i feel like an angel
D G D
free like i almost could fly
F#m Bm F#m D9
drift like a cloud out over the badlands
G Gm D
sing like a bird in the tree
F#m Bm F#m D9
the wind in the sage sounds like heaven singin’
G Gm D
a song of wyoming for me
G Gm D G – Gm – D
a song of wyoming for me
